He was giving a losing deck of cards, a 3-9 record to start with and low morale players. He didn&#39;t hesitate to give top spots immediately to Barkov and Bjugstad. Upshal and Bergenheim came to life from down under, Guds became a much better player, so did Olsen and Hayes in front of the goalie was a strike of genius, not to speak about developing Vinnie Throchek and Howden (weak last year). Players like to work with him, but was replaced to late. He sweats more than any previous Florida coach behind the bench, so why not signing him ?</p>beaspud commented on 'CHANGE AT TOP: Mike Santos To Leave Florida Panthers 'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e201a3fcdf87d7970b2014-03-26T17:24:37Z2014-03-26T17:31:47ZbeaspudI agree, time for Scott Luce to go after 12 years fining nothing worth while in the high draft picks....<p>I agree, time for Scott Luce to go after 12 years fining nothing worth while in the high draft picks. If you can&#39;t find a diamond in the ruff after 12 years you need to find another job. Also, I&#39;ve seen enough of Ed Slovonoski. I only want to see his jersey in the Den of Honor and not on the ice after ths year. </p>season ticket holder since day one commented on 'CHANGE AT TOP: Mike Santos To Leave Florida Panthers 'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e201a73d9a15e2970d2014-03-26T11:22:16Z2014-03-26T11:22:16Zseason ticket holder since day oneI would like to see the Panthers hire Ralph Krueger as the coach This team is last in penalty killing...<p>I would like to see the Panthers hire Ralph Krueger as the coach</p>
<p>This team is last in penalty killing and in the power play; they don&#39;t make adjustments, they appear to be playing a zone instead of clearing out the slot; so many times including last night you see a panther in a spot where there is no opponent and a couple of feet away is the opponent with an easy look at goal. Except for Hayes, we don&#39;t have any one that is willing to stand in front of the goal.</p>
<p>Krueger is known as a great teacher and at this point in year 4 of the Tallon years (I am willing to wait and see how he does with more resources) it is time for the young players to step up a level.</p>
<p>House cleaning is needed and this is step two (Yormark was step one) hopefully we will change the scouting department as well as our draft history is very poor at best.</p>
